    The volcanic soil around Naples is ideal for producing wine. The wider region is called Campania and is rightly famed for its food and wine. The hillsides of Mount Vesuvius are home to some rich and celebrated wine varieties, probably the most famous of them being the heavy Aglianico-based reds or the softer Piedirosso.

    Wine tours from Naples typically take half a day, including a meal of local specialties – with wine pairing, naturally. Along with the regions famous red wine varieties, you will also be able to try a famed white wine called Lacryma Christi (Tears of Christ), whose production method has barely changed since the times of Ancient Rome. You can book a wine tasting tour online.

    Spaccanapoli

    Walk down the ‘Naples splitter’

    Spaccanapoli

    • ประวัติศาสตร์

    Some of the oldest parts of Naples can be found around Spaccanapoli, a 2-km-long street that stretches between Piazza del Gesù Nuovo and Via Duomo. Spaccanapoli is a paved corridor that runs as straight as an arrow, lined with tall vintage houses, boutiques, bars and restaurants. 

    This historical neighbourhood is a typical Neapolitan sight – expect a maze filled with beautiful palazzos, religious buildings, and small, lively squares that stay busy until late at night. There’s no better place to experience the flavours and tempo of Naples.

    Naples is the home of pizza. Few culinary creations have such worldwide appeal, but, perfect in its imperfections, the rustic charm of a Neapolitan pizza is unlike most others. Some people claim it’s all about the dough, others say it’s about just the right amount of sweet tomato and stringy mozzarella cheese on top. Whatever the answer is, sharing a pizza with your partner is a memorable experience. Head to Via Partenope along the waterfront for a long line of pizzerias.

    Mount Vesuvius

    Enjoy stunning views from the peak of a volcano

    Mount Vesuvius is the only active volcano on mainland Europe but hasn’t erupted since 1944. The views at the top are stunning, with a panoramic sweep across the Bay of Naples. The walk up the mountain takes around 30 minutes and is doable for most fitness levels. 

    There are small shops placed at several spots on the way up, selling souvenirs and cold drinks, which is convenient but detracts from the adventurous vibe. Several parts of the trail are unpaved, so proper footwear is required.

    Daytrip along the Amalfi Coast

    Naples is a fascinating city with a bold personality, but it’s not typically pretty like Florence or Verona. If you’re looking for stunning views, head out for a day trip along the Amalfi Coast. This rugged region is made up of charming villages and some standout tourist towns like Sorrento and Solerno. 

    The drive from Naples is along the coast the whole way, and you can stop frequently. Don’t miss the small town of Scario, with its brightly coloured houses built into the hillsides.
